Sometimes I forget that poetry saved my life.
If I hadn't had found it,
And been drawn in how I was.
I wouldn't have had a way to feel back then.
Back before I learned what feeling was like again.
All my thoughts and emotions would have gone unspoken.
Which would have caused me even deeper depression.
Even deeper hiding.
I truly doubt I could have ever re-found my self.
Without poetry coming in.
Without it saving my life.
